• Temposonics® R Series "smart" position sensors with DeviceNet® communications interface expand the functionality of our top of the line displacement sensing product. This enables customers to apply highly reliable, accurate and responsive position sensing to a simple, low cost fieldbus network. 

• DeviceNet® is a bus architecture that includes highspeed data processing suitable for motion control in industrial automation applications, multi-tasking capabilities, simplified bus wiring, sensor-based diagnostics, and easy expandibility, all on a single data highway.

• R Series sensors offer modular construction and non-contacting magnetostrictive technology. 

• DeviceNet® is a CAN-based (Controller Area Network) fieldbus that links all system components via an open databus network. 

• DeviceNet® allows users to interface up to 64 devices using a single cable, thus eliminating the need for conventional methods of multiple wire runs. 

• DeviceNet® provides a way to define how, and in which priority, data will be transmitted over the network. The result is a lower complexity, cost-effective communications network linking industrial measurement and control devices. Together, the open DeviceNet® protocol and the MTS "smart" R Series sensors offer an effective, high-precision data transfer system that is well suited for industrial automation.
